IIS 7.5. Can't disable Url Rewriting rules (I deleted rules but they still affect)

I develop ASP.NET MVC 3 application. I've downloaded UrlRewriting module and created some rules for my website locally. Next i published this website on the Internet to check performance. Thats ok. Then i continued my work locally again. I commented code block in the web.config file regarding these rules. So there are no rules in IIS Manager too. The problem is that rules still affect! For example, i defined "Canonical hostname rule" to redirect browser to "www.*" site name. So this rule still affect, i.e. local IIS server redirect my locally running website to the real one on the Internet. Also i installed IIS Express to try it out too. Result is the same. I cant figure it out where the problem is. So, there are no rewrite rules on IIS server and IIS Express, but they still affect.

You need to reset the IIS in order to apply the changes, then you should clear the browser cache.

Late answer is late. Most likely the redirect was "permanent" so a 301, then it will be cached in the browsers. If you want it to be temporary redirect with code 307.

The URL Rewrite module seams to my a little buggy when the configuration changes becouse the loaded configuration doesn't refreshed until the IIS isn't restarted.
